I think its wonderful that you did not talk about the romance side of things. I appreciate this aspect. To many share wayyyyyyyyy to much on the internet. Young crushes should be held close to their hearts ♥

[@jerseybird3158]

that was a great ad

I recently begun making KZbin videos. Does anyone have advice on how I can improve them?

I just want to say how unbelievable Renee is. I really liked the boundaries she set and maintained.

completely agree but kieth as well his ability to fix and make anything work this whole trip and all year around is insane, crazy smart guy

Boundaries lol ok buddy boundaries are why you are stuck in your cubicle

[@jpg1789]

She is elegant and so well centered. She is a beautiful leader and her daughter got that gift. I can tell.

[@Ringrundup]

You guy's should definitley consider bringing them back on board sometime in the future. They fit in perfectly and we really enjoyed tuning in, it felt like a fun real life reality show. They will be missed!

[@laurahunter1690]

Exactly what I thought. They could have their own show! Great group of people

[@jennifer6833]

My sentiments are exactly the same.

[@lorij9649]

It would never be the same again. Not in a negative way but the dynamics would always be different in the future! Did you notice that both Kate and Renee said they are happy the crew is leaving!

[@tambrabullock]

@@lorij9649 Try having a large crew with all that energy in your own home and see if you are not exhausted after a month... at least they weren't relatives those are difficult even after an hour lol :)

Yah it's gonna be tough to find another crew who fit seamlessly like them....

There’s something so hilarious to me that GenZ can rap ICE ICE BABY word for word, doing GenX proud. 😇 Renee, I appreciate your protecting the kids’ private lives - it’s no one’s business anyway! 🙌

[@tillysanders2593]

Have to give a shout out to Renee & Keith for making this wonderful experience happen for these kids. It's a lot of responsibility having all those young people aboard and a testament of love for their own kids .. and now this med crew ! Thank you guys it was lovely watching you all, from a Brit in Toronto.

[@Stephen_A.]

Madeline's singing "All I Ask" gave me goose bumps. 🧡 ** Update ** All three gave me goose bumps. 🥰

[@joemartino6976]

A wonderful reflection of Keith and family, being able to assemble a crew of strangers and turn them into a loving family in such a short time. That alone speaks volumes about their character. Must be bittersweet, then, to say goodbye.

[@LTDunltd]

Looks like everyone had a blast. And the singing parts were amazing.

[@Leonnie13]

There definitely needs to be a reunion with the med crew!

[@rlfrohs6123]

Wow, the amount of musical talent was amazing!! I think Finn should get a boat and his new buddies and start doing KZbin music…start of an entire new career for him. Fantastic group, it was a privilege to get to see them all together.

[@brentstafford9736]

Toward the end of the video I realized I had been sitting here for 25 minutes with a smile on my face!! What a wonderful group of young people! Thank you Keith & Renee for giving the idea your nod of approval and sponsorship. Thank you Jack, Fin and Kate for welcoming 5 of your peers into your world. I think they liked it. 🙂 Thank you Luke, Glory, Ghannam, Madeline and Gabriela for being yourselves and getting along so well. Such a good example for others to see. Which is why you should ALL continue with KZbin channels. Thanks MedCrew2023 for sharing with us....😊

[@antoninbartocci862]

Is no one going to talk abt the pure gold that Maddie sung during karaoke night ?? 😍

[@stevenholton438]

Fantasticos!

[@hxhdfjifzirstc894]

I didn't keep track of who is who, but all the girls can certainly sing very well.

they were an amazing group and i will miss seeing all the adventures. i am glad kate had this time, she seemed very happy. best of luck to the entire med crew

[@wtt8914]

Glory and Gabriela both can sing. They both have beautiful voices. Wish there was more footage on your karaoke nights. Amazing content as always. Thanks Z-Crew and Med Crew!!!

[@placementname9203]

madeline can as well

[@Selene_777]

they were such a fun group !! it's good ur kids get to have a bond with people in that way and I'm sure this will be a core memory for them all

[@jasonfelice9573]

this group were a lot more media savvy, it helped with making good content, but as lots of others have said, the combination clicked better, maybe being slightly older also helped

[@angela1984a]

I'm guessing age was a rather big part of it.

[@letsrock9209]

I LOVE how all your episodes are numbered! This should be a STANDARD of ALL KZbin videos.

[@laurence9695]

Renee, you're the best spokes woman for Surfshark. Several boaties promote it but yours is the best!

[@rogerklein706]

What an awesome adventure... I loved the Tony Stark quote from Gabriela... "part of the journey is the end"... How fitting and reflective. Hopefully some lifelong friendships were made with this great group of young people!

[@sunnycharacter]

Who wouldn’t want to stay longer with the Z-crew?! What a dream 🥰

[@zolitariglussey6302]

I think we'd get sick of each other! Renee and Keith would throw me off the boat and leave me on an island with rats!!

[@tanner-weber]

I'm sure I speak for all of us viewers when I say I'm going to miss the Med Crew dearly tuning in each week it truly left as if i was there on the boat. Such a great well mannered group of young adults....Please consider bringing them back sometime for some more awesome adventures. Much love, good vibes, and safe sailing/traveling to all❤️

[@Jack-ij9lw]

You guys picked a great crew for the med, not sure how you’ll top it if and when you do it in the Caribbean!

[@chrissy7845]

So many beautiful singing voices on Zatara! Y’all are amazing parents! Love from Michigan!

[@schaffermatt]

This was a great crew, without exception. Hate to see ‘em leave - but life goes on. Keith, you’re a master of all trades, man, major RESPECT; Renee, you are a master videographer and marketer - your SurfShark ad integration was inspired. 👍🏼

[@daviddibble1338]

This was a great adventure. Thanks for sharing with us. Down the road, when all your kids are grown and doing there own thing. You should start a sailing school for young people. It looks like so much fun.

[@stevenholton438]

And Singing methinks!

[@tennmark2591]

I think, as a longtime fan, this was the best episode so far. It is hard enough watching the visitors leave, but it makes you realize that just a couple more episodes and all the kids will be grown up and gone. It's so close to being where it all started, that this may also become where it all ends. Mom and Dad retire to the cabin, Kate goes to college, and the boys head out like Delos and sail the world for the next 10 years.

[@NoN-w9z]

Ha ha ha .. "Mom and Dad retire to the cabin"? Maybe the captain's cabin. ⛵⛵⚓⚓🩴🎶😍🥂🏖🏖

[@brucerhodes8197]

Finn has already mentioned that he's thinking about traveling around in a camper van and sharing the adventures on youtube.

[@rickdiedrich536]

It would be lacking without Kate!

[@WCTarheel]

I liked the first crew from last year, but this crew was more mature and out shined the first. I can't believe how well every one of the girls could sing. Is there a new girl singing group in their future? I think it could be a possibility. I will enjoy the future Zatara videos, but there will be something missing without them.

[@crazylicious85]

It amazes me how well they can sing! Insane!

One of the best episodes you have provided. Thank you.

[@clebermachado]

Awesome group! Reminded me of my boarding school days, doing everything together… and becoming friends for life with so many different people. What I loved about this group was that they are so easy going and helpful - at least, what was shown! 😂😅

What a great crew, it was so much fun to watch you all enjoy yourselves and share your adventures. Everyone cleaned up nicely for the last supper out - a looking good crew.

Keith and Renee, you’re very good chaperones and good examples for your children. Keith, I’m digging on how you keep your boat maintained. Christian Williams says, “that’s the fun of owning a boat that’s yours.“

[@shanehickman9204]

Great video Renee! One of your best. The amount of respect you showed the young ones that may have been involved romantically was awesome. It should absolutely be private. What a great experience you and Keith provided them. They will never forget it. You all are so awesome and so was the Med Crew. OMG, can those girls sing?!! Also, Gabriella was very wise saying part of the journey is the end. Well said.

i cant even imagine how genuine all of these people are. i found the channel when the first red sea vid came out and i thought that they were the best crew. but this crew. man were they perfect for eachother. the whole group just fit in so well. the content from this group on yt and insta was phenomenal as well. love you guys!

What an amazing episode. Other than sailing, all of the things we love about this channel in one episode. This crew will forever remember the Zatara family! Renee and Keith, you guys are amazing!

Thank you for the light in so much darkness! :)

Beautiful Voices Madeline and Glory ❤❤

[@MrGreenMath]

Can’t believe you didn’t let Jack or Fin go with the others for a week and then pick them up. Would have been nice for them to have a little bit of a vacay away from the boat I’m sure. Oh my! I guess I stand corrected. Wait 2 weeks.

[@JonSwimmer]

Love Sailing Zatara, seen every episode! It will be nice to just having just the family on the boat and their amazing adventures.

[@BlazingHot42]

Love it when Keith go in work mode, he's a master sifu & Jedi guru

[@masontaylor3464]

That was really a clever and entertaining way to transition into an advertisement. Kudos!

[@jpg1789]

I came here to say I got emotional with such a short scene and so vibrant at the same time. So many words behind it. I don’t know what Finn and Madeline have together but they spark love, they spark an energy, they spark something that I imagine twin souls would. Makes me feel I want to hug them and celebrate this magic. Well I know I’m romantic but I also know the things I feel. This whole group made me feel with their age again and that’s such a good feeling. This is an epic episode . Renee you are such an amazing leader that “governs” with examples and education. Love you guys.

[@KaleidoscopeMagic]

Yes, previously, Madeline spoke of her and Finn's relationship, saying they are "twin flames"

[@bobbolieu9013]

To date this has been one of your best videos. The amount of character and characters enriched it beyond measure. I applaud the respect for privacy, it was inspiring to see. So many people in such tight spaces for any length of time can push boundaries, yet because of the immense respect you all made it work and flow astoundingly. This is an example of how to live life. You come together and enjoy making memories, growing and maturing, relishing each others company. Thank you for making this video and sharing it with us.

[@robinkey6676]

Enjoyed everything about this crew. Please consider having them return sometime.

[@TFP117morgan]

Renee you are a superstar editor! Better than many reality shows I've seen! Tuning in to watch this crew bond with this family has been just so much fun! Memories for a lifetime for ya'll! Sail on and enjoy!

[@Paul24591]

I am reminded, by the Zatara group protecting the privacy of these young people, of what a class act they are. So many are willing to sell their last bit of dignity for fame. May God Bless you all as you have blessed so many!

Amazing how we get used to each other even when we don't get along we somehow grow on each other! God is good!! we are truly all brothers and sisters under the kingdom of God!!

[@rgwhittaker]

an admirer and fan of the Med Crew and Sailing Zatara. I think what Keith and Renee have done for these young folks is incredible. memories and lifetime friendships created in a month together on the boat. whatever sacrifices the Whitaker family had to make in personal space and comfort is far offset by the relationships and memories made. Bravo from a fellow Whittaker

[@kylewick46]

Will surely miss this group!!!

[@drinkinslim]

I'm amazed when young people know the old songs - even the actual lyrics. They knew the assignment. They collaborated and listened. 😂

[@larrymills4223]

Fabulous Renee. You have captured the essence of having a young crew and giving them the opportunity to enjoy life on the water. Both you and Keith are down to earth. I have enjoyed this Med crew videos. I also enjoyed the Monday Med Crew. A job well done!

[@swanjulio892]

Such a beautiful group. This crew is hard to beat. And make us look forward for the next one!❤️

[@richards5843]

About 15 years ago I spent five week on and off with my uncle on his hundred plus foot V bottom boat. The dining area was above deck and the family room and sleeping area was below deck and had a boat dock in the back for jet skies and a small boat to get to shore. One bad thing about his boat is some docks can't accommodate the boat because of the dept of the water. I don't remember the maker but it was beautiful boat. But to jump off the boat to swim can be a problem unless you jump off the back of the boat. But I would not swim in the ocean maybe if I was in my twenties. Keep making great videos.!

[@sedatedape315]

I'm gonna miss the Med Crew. How you located 5 amazing young people that fit together so way with each other AND slipped right into Zatara family was awesome! Respects for keeping any romances private. That's the way it should be. Also loved how you added the repairs needed. Shows that the "boat life" isn't all about sailing and swimming. Things break down and need fixing/replacing. I will truly miss these great young folks!

[@jellybean7253]

The voices on the girls were so spectacular. I'm really old or else I would try to make something happen for them. I hope they succed in whatever they want to do.

[@dansbrown1313]

Thank you Renee for another wonderful video, this Med crew were all amazing and the mix seemed perfect. I got to see Kate blossom and smile so much and that was what I as a Father of four, most wanted to see. You and Keith took a big risk and pulled it off. The karaoke was really good and if this med crew were invited to rejoin you on Zatara in a year, Kate might even join in as a singer. Sending thanks and warm thoughts from Nanaimo BC, Canada.
